If you are having trouble downloading please ensure you are connected to a good Wi-Fi connection. Please note: "Restore" only applies to in-app purchases.
We often get questions about the different Glenn Harrold apps available so watch the video which will explain the differences between them!
Ultimate Hypnosis (this is a subscription app which offers access to all sessions plus features such as live meditations with me for a monthly fee)
👉 iPhone
👉 Android
Relax & Sleep Well (this app allows outright purchases of individual sessions)
👉 iPhone
👉 Android
All in-app purchases must be downloaded to the same main app where they were purchased originally (there are several Glenn Harrold apps on the App Store). Purchases will also only restore back to devices on the same platform (ie iPhone or Android).
If you're unsure where you made the purchase originally you can check your Apple account . If you are certain that you are unable to restore to the same app where the purchases were made originally, you can try reinstalling which fixes 95% of problems.
How To Reinstall The App:
- On the home screen hold down the main app icon for a few seconds and press X. This will uninstall the app.
- Tap the blue and white App Store icon on the home screen, then tap on APPS and then your profile image in the top right. Then tap PURCHASED.
- Re-download the main app and open it.
- Press Restore (top right) and confirm that you want to restore your purchases.
- Tap on Library (at the bottom) and you should see your paid sessions in the PURCHASED category. When downloading, it's a good idea to be connected to a strong Wi-Fi signal as the files are quite large and require a good connection to download.
- If your purchases do not appear you may find force closing the app and repening helps (double press the Home button and swipe the app off the screen). Alternatively, turning your iPhone or iPad on and off may help.
Are you signed in with the correct account?
If you used a different Google account to make the orginal purchases and you can't restore, please try the following:
- Uninstall Relax & Sleep Well.
- Open the Google Play app.

- Tap the down arrow or if there isn't an arrow tap "Add another account" and select the account (or sign in with the account) where you made the purchases originally.
- Reinstall Relax & Sleep Well
- Open the app and tap Restore (top right). You’ll then see your sessions on the Library page in the Purchased category.
If your purchases still don't restore, you may need to sync your Google account by going to Settings (on your device) > Accounts & Back Up > Manage Accounts > Google (or your email address) > Sync Account.
Did you purchase the sessions within Relax & Sleep Well?
It may be that your purchases were made from a different Glenn Harrold app (such as Ultimate Weight Loss or Solfeggio Sonic Meditations) which are no longer supported.

We will help you access your sessions within Relax & Sleep Well.

Unfortunately, apps are not transferable across platforms, so once you buy them they will only work on the operating system you are using at that time. You can get a new phone or tablet and they will still work, but you must be the same operating system (ie Android or iOS).
This is one of the reasons why the app versions are so cheap in comparison to the MP3 versions. The MP3s can be used on any of your devices, forever, as long as you keep a back up of the files. You can find the MP3s here.
Yes - As long as the app is on the same platform as your original purchase (ie iOS) and you are signed in with the same Apple ID or Google Account (depening on which platform you purchased the app on). Simply sign into your account, and go to the Apple App Store, or Google Play store, find the app and download it to your second device. Please note that you cannot install an Apple App on an Android or Windows Phone device or vice versa.
